WILD COAST & TRANSKEI

The Wild Coast, as its name implies is rugged and restless, with abundant shipwrecks strewn along its isolated beaches. This is typically unspoiled rural South Africa, which is nearly left in time and chiefly untouched by the infrastructure of the rest of the country.

This is because it was a black homeland within apartheid South Africa that was not deemed worthy of development. Today it remains a poor area dotted with villages of traditional mud and thatch huts. Cattle are grazed on the grasslands and the land is toiled by hand and oxen to provide a subsistence living

A preferred destination along the Wild Coast, Port St John’s offers up an incredible stretch of coastline. Second Beach at Port St John’s is a tropical heaven and nature lovers find it tough to leave this haven. The beaches of Port St John’s are incredible for swimming and a nearby lagoon is a great for children to play in safety.
